I have this one friend with an economics background (which might be more a hindrance than a help at this point). He remembers me telling him to buy bitcoin at $50, but still doesn't listen.
His go-to is 'Quantum computing is going to destroy crypto; and we don't know when, so get out now'.
All talk, no listen. Somebody authoritative told him it's not worth investigating, so he doesn't.
Why am I not authoritative?
I called it. I nailed it. I was exactly right. Maybe I know something.
No one wants to listen, because they don't want to take the risk of looking foolish if they are wrong - better to be wrong with the masses, than right with the few.
Also, the economists should remember that a year ago they were saying that printing more money isn't a problem and inflation being a problem for the economy is "old thinking"
